Um, as you point out it would have been a *third* degree felony. Which is not a *first* degree felony which would have had a 10 years Statute of Limitations, instead having a 5 year SoL. Meaning the judge can no longer be charged for that incident.
So Facebook is going to block links to sites that are full of spam, or attempt to take all of your personal information in order to make money from it...
So, as best I can tell, Facebook has deemed Facebook.com to be a malicious link...
Should not the grand fathering also apply to data rates then?
Isn't the function of the Board to oversee the running of the company by Upper management? The board nominally works for/represents the shareholders. Who would the proposed new oversight committee represent? What happens when we decide that this new oversight committee isn't doing it's job properly? Do we appoint yet another committee to oversee the committee that oversees the board that oversees the upper management?
I don't think the CEO of a company has it as simple as many make it out to be, if any business school graduate could do it for a fraction of the price they would be doing it. There are plenty of companies out there and if anyone with a degree could do the job they would all be leading those companies into becoming much larger and more successful companies.
Should I be worried that you put a qualifier on where you don't kill people?
Honestly I'd find a good subduction point and toss it in there, sure it'll piss of the Morlocks... But a little sunlight takes care of them.
Because the people that put out content for the computer ship on them. A cheap 4G mem stick is ~$4, to press 4.7G DVD costs them pennies. Until there is a useful way to allow customers to DL onto their own memory sticks, optical will stick around.
Actually I see it the other way, the various industrial entities would love to go after you after a single report or even suggestion of piracy. A 6 strike policy allows you plenty of time to find a new carrier, or find a new way of doing things that are not detectable with current standards.
Although I wonder... the torrent system is covered under copyright/patents right? Could (should they so desire) the holders of said IP make it a caveat of the use of their method that it not be used to entrap users? Maybe it's just me, but turning around and accusing the industries of illegal pirating would be quite satisfying.
If we just put the people to work manually turning hand crank generators we could make that puny number of worker hours per megawatt tremble in fear. Of course it would cost us something like $30 a kilowatt for electricity, but it would be ultragreen energy!
Why does my jello taste like Grandma?
Depends.
If you have been living in the Slashdot equivalent of a cave (which, note, might mean approximately the opposite of what that phrase would mean in the non-tech-obsessed world), you might not know that Beryl and Compiz are a) apparently about to merge back together and b) are compositing window managers that let you do all that wiggly-window, 3-D cube visual effect madness. I've been watching enviously screencasts of the cubes flipping merrily around, and windows wiggling like Jell-O brand gel
